Frequently asked questions

How does using Live View help prevent blur when shooting still subjects?

Live View raises the mirror well before the shutter is released, which reduces blur caused by the slight movement that occurs when the mirror is raised.

How can users confirm if color aliasing or moiré is present in their photos?

These artifacts are not visible in the camera monitor but can be confirmed by copying photos to a computer and viewing them at a display size of 100%.
